MBBI experts will demonstrate a typical interactive training session and share stories of peacebuilders who are helping their communities prevent or heal from conflict with a special emphasize on women peacebuilders.
As colleges and universities work to attract diverse students, engaging multicultural college students in recruitment and outreach efforts is a vital means of connecting with students of color. Highlighting DePaul University’s Office of Community Outreach’s Peer Guide program and the Office of Undergraduate Admission’s Student Ambassador and Intern program, attendees will learn how to recruit and effectively engage minority students in recruitment and outreach efforts geared towards reaching out to minority students. Attendees will also have the opportunity to interact with a panel of college students that actively participate in the Peer Guide program.
